Has anyone ordered interior parts, particularly wool carpet kits from John
Skinner at www.john-skinner.co.uk ? He sent me some samples. The wool
samples have a rubber backing, and seem to be fairly soft. I don't know how
they would wear, but I doubt that they would shrink. They're pretty
inexpensive compared to TRF, so I'm skeptical.
